Introduction – No VM Courseware
This course's lab experience was designed to run on the student's own PCs. The
course is not shipped with a dedicated virtual machine. Students should install
the required software specified below on their PCs. Training centers interested in
providing the development environment for their enrolled students should follow
the below installation steps for each classroom PC.

Digital Courseware
If you are using digital courseware via the Skillpipe reader from Arvato, if the
course contains a “boot to vhd” or “native boot” scenario in some or all of the
labs, students will not be able to view the online courseware content and lab
steps in the Skillpipe reader while their host machine is offline. In this particular
scenario, there are available options:
1. Have two network interface cards (NICs) in the host machines.
2. Print out Lab steps for the particular module.
3. Ask student who have their own devices to bring them to the class.
4. Configure two virtual machines prior to the class to allow access to the
content offline.
Depending on your particular situation, consider implementing one of the above
options. Further details and considerations for these workarounds and options
are available on the Born To Learn website at https://borntolearn.mslearn.net/,
and have also been sent out via partner and MCT newsletters.

Important: Additional virtual machine configuration may be required.

Therefore, you should allow enough time to assess your situation and make
appropriate decisions.
